Fixes for Xorg Wizard

Testing EasyOS 7.0.11 prior to release, on my Acer Aspire2 laptop it is required to run the Xorg Wizard, as Xorg doesn't automatically choose the 'amdgpu' driver. That has been fine, until now.

The Xorg Wizard is broken. A couple of reasons, one being that the 'parse-edid' utility is missing. That requires the 'read-edid' package. Fixed.

Secondly, the Xorg 'glide' driver installs into a different place than the other Xorg driver, and this upset the Xorg Wizard search for path to the drivers. Fixed.

Started to put in consideration for the Intel 'xe' kernel module.

The Wizard does need more work, but good enough for now. I'll rebuild 7.0.11 tonight, hopefully to release very soon. I'm back on my computer; my jetsetting daughter has briefly visited Perth, now in India.
